They are used to maintain applications and support users for long term period. Operating costs can be reduced, applications systems can be improvised and software processes can be improved by implementing application management services thereby ensuring faster and better performance of business processes and applications. Current market trend in application management services include outsourcing activities, hosting cloud applications and mobile models. There have been remarkable technological improvements and changing business models in recent times in addition to optimization of processes that drive the deployment of these applications.

Application management includes various domains such as Application outsourcing as a part of packaged and custom management, Hosted Application Management as a part of Cloud modelling, Customized application management that employ various application factory models and best practices, testing service portfolios provided by cloud providers and traditional systems. ****** cloud services market is expected to grow over 16.5 percent to a total above $204 billion up from $175 from 2015.The highest growth is expected to come from cloud system infrastructure services which includes infrastructure as a service and is expected to have a growth rate of over 38.4 percent in the forecast period. The largest segment in the application service market is the cloud advertising service that is expected to grow above 13.6 percent to reach over $90.3 billion.

This continuous growth marks a shift away from systems maintaining legacy infrastructure services. IaaS is the strongest growing segment as organizations choose to drift away from infrastructure employing data centers and move their hardware into public oriented cloud based services to store data. Few market enterprises have become market leaders in this segment as they emphasize on differentiating the applications they provide by bringing about new ways of storing and maintaining Data. Software as a service (SaaS) is expected to grow at a rate of over 20.3 percent in the forecast period and have a revenue of around 37.7 billion. Vendors in this market prefer moving to cloud based offering from on-premises licensed software systems that are much more expensive. This trend is expected to show remarkable improvements in the near future. Major vendors in Cloud services can is expected tp fuel the Saas Market as well.
